Data Masking/Protection
This is the first of two articles showing how to create and use job flows in the IRI Workbench GUI for Voracity. It follows two other series on creating flows automatically using new job wizards. Read More
Test Data
Unlike the New DB Test Data Job wizard for creating multiple, related test tables, the New Test Data Job wizard in the IRI Workbench GUI for RowGen generates individual test sets. Read More
Test Data
This article explains how to use IRI RowGen to create test files for prototyping COBOL applications running on, or off, the mainframe.
RowGen generates synthetic test data for file, database, and custom report targets. Read More
Data Migration
In the course of legacy platform and/or application migration, COBOL users often need to convert their binary and index files into a human-readable, ASCII-numeric target. One of these older formats is the ACUCOBOL Vision1 file, which we discussed previously in this article. Read More
Big Data
Introduction: This example demonstrates an older method of using the unstructured data edition of IRI NextForm to extract dark data and prepare it for ingestion in Splunk for indexing and visualization purposes. Read More
Data Masking/Protection
IRI’s data management tools share a familiar and self-documenting metadata language called SortCL. All these tools — including CoSort, FieldShield, NextForm, and RowGen — require data definition file (DDF) layouts with /FIELD specifications for each data source so you can map your data and manage your metadata.
